Psalms 71:24

24 But and my tongue shall think all day on thy rightfulness; when they shall be shamed and ashamed, that seek evils to me. (And my tongue shall tell of thy righteousness all day long; and they, who seek evil for me, shall be shamed, and ashamed.)

Psalms 71:24 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 71:24

My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day
long (See Gill on Psalms 71:16);

for they are confounded;
his adversaries, for whose confusion he prayed, ( Psalms 71:13 ) ;

for they are brought unto shame that seek my hurt;
as Absalom and Ahithophel, being both brought to a shameful end.

Psalms 71:24 In-Context

22 For why and I shall acknowledge to thee, thou God, thy truth in the instruments of psalm; I shall sing in an harp to thee, that art the holy of Israel. (And I shall praise thee, O God, for thy faithfulness, with the instruments of song; I shall sing to thee on a harp, O Holy One of Israel.)

23 My lips shall make fully joy, when I shall sing to thee; and my soul, which thou again-boughtest. (My lips shall make full out joy, when I shall sing to thee; as will my soul, which thou hast bought back, or redeemed.)

24 But and my tongue shall think all day on thy rightfulness; when they shall be shamed and ashamed, that seek evils to me. (And my tongue shall tell of thy righteousness all day long; and they, who seek evil for me, shall be shamed, and ashamed.)
